"Billie, Mary Alice, Helen y Natalie han trabajado durante cuatro décadas para el Museo, una exclusiva red de asesinos. Sin embargo, ahora las consideran "de la vieja escuela" y, como la tecnología importa más que la inteligencia, ya nadie valora su talento. Cuando las invitan a un crucero para celebrar su jubilación, estas no tardan en darse cuenta de que se han convertido en objetivo de la Junta del Museo, que ha ordenado eliminarlas. Es así como las cuatro integrantes del llamado "Proyecto Esfinge" deberán organizarse por su cuenta, confiar las unas en las otras y esperar que el trabajo en equipo sea la clave de su supervivencia. La Junta está a punto de descubrir de lo que es capaz una señora de armas tomar." -- Proporcionada por la editorial. -- Traducido de la edición en inglés de 2023.

"They've spent their lives as the deadliest assassins in a clandestine international organization, but now that they're sixty years old, four women friends can't just retire--it's kill or be killed in this action-packed thriller by New York Times bestselling and Edgar Award-nominated author Deanna Raybourn. Billie, Mary Alice, Helen, and Natalie have worked for the Museum, an elite network of assassins, for forty years. Now their talents are considered old-school and no one appreciates what they have to offer in an age that relies more on technology than people skills. When the foursome is sent on an all-expenses paid vacation to mark their retirement, they are targeted by one of their own. Only the Board, the top-level members of the Museum, can order the termination of field agents, and the women realize they've been marked for death. Now to get out alive they have to turn against their own organization, relying on experience and each other to get the job done, knowing that working together is the secret to their survival. They're about to teach the Board what it really means to be a woman--and a killer--of a certain age." -- Provided by publisher. -- Strong language and some violence. Spanish language.
